Members Levins7 Posted July 3, 2018 Members Report Posted July 3, 2018 Hey all, Any tips for making alligator hide belts? A coworker has an alligator hide he would like me to use to make him a belt. I have yet to see the hide, but he says it's pretty thick. Thanks, JC Quote
garypl Posted July 3, 2018 Report Posted July 3, 2018 I’m no expert on alligator, but I made a cigar case using embossed vegtan- was bumpy like alligator. I put the edges in a vise and flattened them so I could punch holes more easily, then I hand stitched them. Turned out ok, maybe real alligator will work the same? Gary Quote
